"Minimum Operating Pressure."
Huh?
I quickly noticed what was wrong, and I created a red box around the problem area in the picture above. You can check it out yourself on page 6 of the catalog. In case you don't see what's wrong, the top row of the hose specifications columns is off by one column so it gives you specs for "Maximum Hose O.D.," "Minimum Operating Pressure," "Weight Bend Radius" and "Per Foot."
Normally typos are small errors (see the "Complements of" watermark on the PDF catalog link at the beginning of this post) but listing an Operating Pressure as Minimum instead of Maximum can be dangerous... even deadly.
Plus, I've found two more errors on this page in my printed catalog: the Applications for the AQP hose aren't listed (they are in the PDF) and the superscript 1 next to the "1000/750" in the column that's supposed to be Maximum Operating Pressure isn't explained. Looking at the old catalog you can see this 1 stands for "Rating for use with lightweight crimp fittings." This is still vital info you need know.
I'm not saying I'm perfect, I'm just putting this out there so you don't misinterpret these specs and make a horrible mistake. Have you found any more typos in this catalog or any others? Let us know and we'll put them up here because there's no reason to keep this info to yourself if you can help someone stay safe!
